YV? havo-Monlana dates to the 27l1
of January; tbo papers from Virginia
City having ' como through by Salt
Lako City in thirty daf a.
' The Sun Hivor excitement turns out
to-'bo-a1 "'steamboat." Tho weather
camb oh very cold, while hundreds of
prospebtors were "out with insufficient
supplies, and it is feared that many
lives have been lost. .
A man named James Talbot was
Fork of tho Missouri by thrco high
' way men. lie lost two hundred ounces
of gold dust and $650 in greenbacks,
but escaped without personal injry.
This happoned on tho main road from
Virginia City to Ilolona.
Tho Idaho Statesman thinks the
.Branch Mint will yot be located at
I3oiso City. Tho Washington States
man appears to think that Tho Empo
rium will bo tho place. When States
men differ who is to docido ?
Tbo .Now- York & Owyheo Corns
pany'a Mill, at Owyhoo, commenooil
crushing rock on the 7th of February.
Tho Walla "Walla Statesman of Feb.
ruary XOih contains the following:
Mr.. Henry LaFlour, a resident of Col
villo, and just down from tho mines,
has exhibitod sonti very fine speci
mens of coarBo gold, taken out of his
claim on French Creek, about twenty
miles from the Columbia River, above
Death Rapids. Mr. L. worked five
men. with one sluice, and here is tho
yield per day, as noted down: Oct. 5,
1865, $55 7, $295 ; 10, 83C3 j 11, $170;
13, $140 ; 14, $127 J 15, $388 ; 16, $513;
17, $714; 18, SG80;. 19, $109i ; 21, $1,.
105; 22.S930; 23,22.8; 25, $4171; 26,
$182; 28, $2671; 29, $255; 31, $215.
This gold ho estimated at $17 per oz.;
but ho informs us that the gold in 'this
market is worth $18. , . -Tho
Idaho Statesman says that a
new trail will bo laid out in tho spring
from. Boise City to Helena, by Fort
Lemhi, on Salmon River.' r-Tb..Q.. ia
tanco is said to be two hundred and
filly miles. This must bo tho " air
line" heretofore spoken of, as the par
lies who may try togoover.thoground
" early in tho spring ".will find that
thesnow will., rango-from. throe rto
twenty feet from tho head of the East
Fork of the Pa'yotte to near Lemhi.
. Tho hostile demonstrations of tho
Snake Indians in Southern Idubsj is
tho most important piece of informa
tion wo hava from tho interior. They
havo, for several weeks past been ac
tively engrged in depredating on
way-farors and wagon. trains. Capt.
White, First Oregon Cavalry, station
od at Camp Lyon, went qut after the
Indians who had bcon in the neigh
borhood of Ruby City, and bad a ekir.
Taish with them, in which ho lost one
man killed. Somo fears are enter
tained' for the safety of Camp Lyon
Forty mounted mon from Fort
Boise bavo gono,to tho assistance
of Capt. White, and the troops in the
- Harney Lako country will move in
that diroction as soon as it is pracli
cablo to march. A company of citi
zen, voluntoors is forming at Owyhoo,
tp, number one bundrod. On Snake
' River, the Indians havo driven off the
cattle of Henry G. Miller, who resides
outBurnt. River, i The robbers were
pursued without being ovorh
The present season will probably
y wit-
doss the total repression of savage
warfare in the vicinity of the mines on
the waters of Snake River, and the
late outbreak' Will only hasten that
event, by rouBing citizens and military
to onorgotic action. ' ' , 1 .;
Tho road from the mouth of Muscle
Sholl River, the head of navigation on
the Missouri River, to Helena, funs
through a fine farming country for the
greater part of its length, which is
about two hundred and ' ts'enty-fivo
rniles. ' " "". '.'..'.''"
Boise Valley is clear of snow and
farmors wore about to commenco
breaking ground on the 15lh of Feb
ruary. v
A Mrs. Reed, living at Jefferson
Gulch, Blackfoot mines, was frozen to
duath in January. She wandered
away from homo in a condition of
drunkenness, and was found five days
afterwards. Her husband, in the
meantime, had been arrested on sus
picion of murdoring her.
Tho diggings found last fall between
Big and Littlo Blackfoot, fifty miles
from Hellgate Rondo, are turning out
to bo rich nnd extensive. On Elk
Creek, some twenty gulches (small
creeks) bavo proven to bo rich, and
claims aro already soiling weil up in
tho thousands.
A Proclamation 1ms been issued by
Acting Governor T. F. Meughor, ol
Montana, calling an olection for mem
bers of a convention to meet at Ban
ijack City on the 26th of March.
Tho election was to be held on tbo
24lh of February. The purpose ap
pears to be to mako a Slato out of
Montana on short notico.
TUB MONTANA T1IADE.
We have files ot Montana papers to
tho 27th of January, At liluckfoot
City, wo learn by letter, flour was re
tailing at $35 for States, Walla Wall
and Oregon brands. There were sov
eral partios buying in quantities at $32
on speculation. . , ' ' . ,
' At Ilelona prices are about tho same
as those of Virginia City. ,
Tobacco bad declined in all the
principal mining camps. A slight de
cline in provisions, and supplies in pen
eral, is noted, as in our reprint of Vir
ginia prices current, which is attrib
utable to the fact that Bales are-gens
orally limited to lmmodialo demand
for consumption. The ruling rates,
however, are higher than last year at
the sanve time.
